Nanobubbles for effective and energy efficient water treatment

该项目旨在为开发臭氧纳米气泡产生新的知识，作为水务行业的一种技术选择，因为在那里没有商业上适用的技术。澳大利亚水务公司已经确定了两个关键挑战：分别销毁回收水和水库水中的微污染物和天然有机物。该项目的新知识将使这些自来水公司能够利用纳米气泡的非凡特性和臭氧的强大氧化能力，进行有效和节能的水处理。通过科学设计的中试工厂，对照当前最先进的臭氧工艺和反渗透技术，确保向该行业进行技术转移。

This project aims to produce new knowledge for developing ozone nanobubbles as a technological option for the water industry where commercially suitable technologies are unavailable. Australian water utilities have identified two key challenges: destruction of micropollutants and natural organic matter in recycled and reservoir water, respectively. New knowledge from the project will allow these water utilities to utilise the extraordinary properties of nanobubbles and the strong oxidation capability of ozone for effective and energy efficient water treatment. Tech-transfer to the industry is guaranteed through a scientifically designed pilot plant for benchmarking against the current state of the art ozonation process and reverse osmosis.
